Are you overweight, willing to take back your health, ready to make changes in your life, and wish to lose fat?

Now you’re talking.

After 4 weeks following the 30-day fat-loss system I have already lost over 13 inches in total from my chest, waist, belly, and hips. And that is just the beginning. (My husband has lost over 5 inches and put another notch in his belt. He’ll be in his wedding suit in no time!)

It is NOT about weighing yourself; it IS about measuring yourself.

It is NOT about dieting; it IS about eating healthy, following the TruHealth system and a low-glycemic eating plan.

It is NOT about the BMI (Body Mass Index) which is flawed; it IS about the scientific research on the BCI or Body Composition Index (fat, muscles, bones).

Is this a gimmick?

Absolutely not. The supplements are all plant sourced, no additives, no soy, etc., and is suitable for even a vegan to enjoy. The study of BCI showed very clearly that scale weight cannot give you an accurate measurement of your true change in body composition.

We do recommend you find someone to be on the program with you who lives near by. Also you will be accountable to me when you are on the program – by phone, email, face time, Skype – lots of different ways.

With this program you have 180 days – yes days – satisfaction guaranteed or your money back. Plus other benefits. So, what do you have to lose? (pun intended….)

For more information click here and watch the video on the top right, and then take the next step. (There are 2 different choices on how to start, this site only shows 1. I can tell you about the 2nd choice.)

What motivates me to continue with this program when I – like you – have tried so many different ones before? Because it is a very healthy approach, backed by scientific research, and it works. Also because there are so many people who need this and I have a responsibility to show them – and not just tell them – that it works so that they, too, can potentially have their life back.

IS there hope for the over weight person like me? This is the journey I’ve been taking all my adult life (well my life so far that is). I am person who has tried many, many, MANY diets. I know what it means to try, succeed for a bit, fail in a big way, and try again. Does this sound familiar?

Along the way, though, I learned lots – and not just about dieting. I learned lots about myself – some of which is good, some understandable, and some not very good. And I learned that when it comes to eating I can have a very strong will – and not for good. OUCH.

But throughout this journey I have never given up hope. Long gone are fad diet experiments. Now I will only look for credible, science based systems. And I discovered one!With 3 out of 4 Americans deemed overweight there is a huge – no pun intended – number of people looking for help getting to a healthy weight. So I am offering you hope, too. (And I am sure that stats would apply to a lot of other countries, sad to say.)

We’ve been told, for so long, that the BMI (Body Mass Index) is the gold standard for healthy weight. But let’s look at it:Two men, both 220 pounds, both 5’11”, and both obese! That’s what the numbers say, but not the picture.

With this system the first thing you do is throw out the scales. Okay, keep them to weigh yourself at the beginning but then wait at least 1 week between weigh-ins.

And measure yourself every week. It is about the centimeters (inches) lost, not the kilograms/pounds

The reason for this is fat takes up much more space than muscle. The whole purpose of this system is to lose fat including the adipose fat around the organs – and in the process you may gain some muscle. (A Dexta Scan shows these changes very well.)The whole TruHealth 30-Day Fat Loss System is based on the Body Composition Index (BCI) — your fat, muscle, and bone mass are all taken into consideration.

Take a look at this short video which explains the 30 day Fat Loss System. The TruHealth System is vegan friendly and contain:

no dairy

no soy

no gluten

no GMO products

no artificial colours

no artificial flavours

no artificial sweeteners

Contained in all of the products are plant sourced ingredients only. The added bonus is the 20 grams of plant protein add to the shakes. And read my blog about the vitamins and minerals we sell – which are included in the shakes along with a lot of other ‘good stuff’. (How’s that for a technical word?!)

Are you even vaguely interested? Does the 180 day satisfaction or your money refunded (even on the empty containers) sound intriguing? Complete the “contact me” form and I will do that – contact you – and I will try to answer any and all your questions.

And me? I began April 18th and weighed myself – don’t ask. I also did measure myself. The first week I lost 6 inches – 2 of them being on my belly. Am I encouraged? You bet! I thank God for His love and for the encouragement of my husband (who is doing this with me) and friends.

If you are tired of dieting and ready to make a life-style change, let’s talk. We’d love for you to join us in this journey, supporting each other and any other who join our ‘group’.

Did you know that 95% of your vitamin products are made from Petroleum and Coal Tar by products?

And that the mineral in your supplement is probably made from ground rock, ground calcium, ground limestone?

So, you say, why should that matter? It matters because our body is not designed to absorb these things and if our body is not absorbing nutrients from these products it is not only a waste of money, it also can be dangerous.

I find that scary!

Here’s are results from two of those 47 clinical trials:

Wonder how your vitamin supplement measures up? If you put your vitamin in the oven at 350 F for 10 minutes will it look like any of these?

The black marks indicates petroleum. The 2 that did not turn black (#6 & # 8) at all are the plant sourced Vitamins & Minerals I use and can help you purchase as well.

We also take the technology for our Vitamin & Mineral product (called PhytoMatrix) and put it into a product called Phytoblend. This is given to the M5M Foundation which will donate it it to feeding programs – in orphanages and in schools – around the world to help save children’s lives.

For more information on how you can change your source of vitamin and mineral product to a Real Food source and not only help yourself but help save a child’s life at the same time – just complete the form found on the contact tab. We look forward to hearing from you.

Often we see products with a symbol on it stating that it is ‘Kosher’. I am sure many of you scratch your head and say “Huh? Is it that important?”

Well, yes and no. If you are of a race or religion that will eat only certain foods then it is very important. If you are one who wants to eat in a healthy way or take healthy supplements then the Kosher symbol gives you confidence in that product.

“Mannatech is committed to ensuring that we deliver the safest and highest quality products possible for our Associates and Members. We also recognize the importance and value of kosher certification on our products. We are happy to announce that our products have been recertified with a reputable kosher certification agency, EarthKosher. They specialize in natural, organic and specialty products and provide supervision and follow-up inspections to ensure a comprehensive process. EarthKosher offers thorough services with their 7-step certification process.“

“The kosher symbol has become synonymous with accountability, quality and food safety. Being certified kosher means that we comply with a strict policy of kosher food laws, including cleanliness, purity and quality.”

Powerful statements. While we pay to have them check our products this is not buying them off. It is to cover their costs in doing the 7 steps as mentioned above. Quality and accountability – those are 2 cornerstones of Mannatech and its products.

“I have confidence in confidence alone” I’m sure 95% of you reading that will know where it came from. (For the 5% it is Maria singing in The Sound of Music.)

Confidence. Wow – what a word. When someone has confidence in you – especially when that person is someone you trust or respect — you start having confidence in yourself.

And a word that comes together with the word “confidence” are the words “encourager” and “encouragement”.

Through life we often face challenges that seem insurmountable. There is absolutely no way we can do it. Along comes someone who gives us a word or two of encouragement and soon we find that what was insurmountable is finished. You did it. And that gives you lots of confidence and a great feeling of pride in yourself that you actually did that thing.

The person who is an encourager is often over looked. We look at the one who succeeds. There is an old saying that behind ever successful man is a mother and/or wife. And that is true too of every successful woman. But we need encouragers and we need to be encouragers as well.

I had a neat thing happen to me recently. First some background: within the last year I’ve had both of my knees replaced. For my therapy after each surgery I went to the local city-run indoor pool for exercises. As I became stronger, especially after the 2nd surgery and ‘alignment’ I started to walk the length of the shallow pool – 25 metres. Every so often I would swim – using the crawl which I had detested growing up. But mostly walked.

One day late last fall I had just completed doing the crawl for one length. One of the seasoned life guards came over to me and said, “Peggy, you have a great crawl there. You should work on doing lengths to build up your stamina.” After muttering, in jest, ‘gee thanks. Now I have no excuse to not swim’ (remember I detested the crawl!) I decided to make better use of my time at the pool.

By Monday I had worked myself up to 30 lengths – 15 walking and 15 swimming. (That is 3/4 of a kilometre by the way.) Then the same life guard came over to me and encouraged me and suggested a new thing to add to my regime. Why? Because I was trying and she saw that and encouraged me to try more. I did add the different stroke for my last 4 lengths at her suggestion and I felt good. Good because she had enough confidence in my ability and was willing to encourage me and push me further. Of course I grumbled – I wouldn’t be my lazy self if I didn’t, but seriously, I am looking forward to my next date with the pool to implement her suggestion for the full swim.

So, this week, who can you encourage? Is there someone who has encouraged you? I am thankful for the many who have encouraged me over the years — especially those who don’t stop! And as a follower of Christ I am also reminded about the ultimate Encourager:

My “former” husband was getting so tired that he could not even drive the 1.5 hour drive to my parents without pulling over to take a nap. He decided to “try” these products because, after all, we had paid for them.

Within weeks after beginning to consume Ambrotose and a couple other products he saw a huge difference in his stamina. He even drove a-new-to us Mini-Van from Calgary to Porcupine, alone, at least 8 hour drives with only overnight stops for rest.

Our marriage has changed positively due to his lack of fatigue. He is excited and really loves the fact that he can have a life now. Would we stop taking these supplements? Absolutely not! I like this new husband!

He was a tad curious at first mainly because even when we started there there was already much published science behind these products. But now? Glycobiology is a subject taught in universities & colleges in North America and other countries, Oxford University in England being one of the first if not the first.

Are you often tired? Why not try Mannatech’s Ambrotose for 6 months to see if there are any positive changes in your health? You have a 180 day money back guarantee.

And the neat thing is with every sale of this product nutrition is provided to a child for that month so that they, too, can live a healthier life.

And for those of you who are still skeptical about the value of this product, because of research, etc., here are claims the US government has permitted to be made about the product:
● Can enhance your body’s immune response to vaccinations against bacterial infections.
● May help to keep your immune system strong year round.
● Can enhance your body’s response to vaccinations.
● Activates your immune system.
● May activate your body’s ability to respond to pathogens (bad guys).
● Activates the body’s ability to respond to bacterial vaccines.
● Can activate your immune system. Modulates and supports your body’s immune system.
● Supports the innate immune response.
● May improve the adaptive immune response.*

It starts with the cells of your body and if they cannot perform as they should then that effects the rest of your system. So if you are already taking nutritional supplements I urge you to consider adding these glycans to your regime. They will help your body assimilate the nutrition to are taking much more efficiently. And with 100% money back up to 180 days what do you have to lose?

And, they say a picture is worth a thousand words? Here are 3 to help explain things 🙂

As we approach Hallowe’en I look back to when I was a young lass. How many of you readers remember going out all dressed up, those sweaty masks over your face and some home made costume, a grocery shopping bag or pillow case in your hands, ready to have them filled? How many remember these little cardboard boxes given to us in school, to collect coins for UNICEF?

This began in Canada in 1955 and continued for 50 years, stopping out of concern for the safety of the children and for administration reasons. During the last 15 years Canadians donated on an average of $3 Million. That is a LOT of coins to roll! With the money raised by the boxes and since with programs in the school, UNICEF is able to put a huge dent in many childhood diseases all over the world. That is not a trick but a huge treat for these children.

In 1993 Samaritan’s Purse began, on a small scale, a program called Operation Christmas Child. In 1994 I received information on this program and decided it was something that any one could do, no matter their race, age, religion, or whatever! So in 1995 I had the privilege of introducing this program to the whole North Eastern Ontario via CBC radio, Timmins Times, and the Daily Press. They were all great supporters – and still are to this day. It is a simple program of looking at a suggested list of items, purchasing them, and putting them in a shoe box. To date over 100 million shoe boxes have been delivered world wide. They went to areas that have faced huge disaster, where war is the norm for their lives, where poverty is rampant. Did these boxes change the children’s living conditions? No, of course not. But what they did — and still do — is let the children know that someone, somewhere else, cares enough about them to put this box together. It gives the children joy and hope.

In 1994 a company called Mannatech began business in Dallas, TX. Over the years they have expanded their business to 25 different countries. Mannatech refers to their mission as M5M. As a business they work through M5M Foundation, a US 501(c)3 charity to deliver the PhytoBlend powder. This is possible through the sales of all their products. Their aim is to add nutrition to the food for children in orphanages and feeding programs throughout the world to eradicate malnutrition. Just by adding that PhytoBlend powder to the child’s food the change is astonishing.

So, what do these three things have in common? Children. And how these programs are used to help make life better and healthier for them world-wide. I am so thankful that I’ve been a part of UNICEF as a child (my box was always almost full!) and learned how important it was to think of others. Then through Operation Christmas Child and our business through Mannatech we continue this ministry. And we are not alone. Many are helping on this journey and the door is open for others to help us, especially with the year round M5M project.

The subject of money came up the other week. It was in context of some people earning a lot of money and so that somehow network marketing must be wrong because it is all about how much money you can earn.

Is it? Is it really all about the money? Money – and the promise of riches – raises a red flag in many minds. After all isn’t the old saying “money is the root of all evil” something not to be ignored?

But then again, isn’t it our right to be rich? After all some teach from ancient writings that say that when God promised blessings He really meant that God wants you to be rich and healthy. Anything else meant you lacked faith.

This ‘get rich’ message goes further: it insists that you should pursue richness using honourable statements like “Think of all the good you can do”.

Many Network Marketing companies (legitimate ones and the fly-by-nighters) push the ‘you can be rich’ mentality to the limit which does attract folk. And if you don’t earn money you feel gypped.

Well the truths are as follows:

The quote about evil really goes like this: “The love of money is the root of all evil”. I do not have to expand on this – we just need to look around the world and see the mayhem this twisted love affair with money has caused.

And about the ‘blessings’… The ancient writings say ‘seek first the kingdom of God and all these things (peace, joy, goodness, kindness, love, long suffering, gentleness) will be given to us.

This bad teaching is no different that the ones who preach and advocate poverty as superior. They teach that money is filthy and you should be giving it all away.

I just shake my head at these distortions.

Because of this “Get rich [quick]” mentality and all the negative ramification surrounding this teaching, many people shy away from admitting that they are earning a decent income doing direct sales. That is too bad because an extra $500 or $1000 per month could make a difference between living a comfortable life and poverty for so many people.

We were pleased that when we joined Mannatech there never was a ‘you’ll get rich’ mentality nor is it there even now. Yes we could earn a greater income as our business grows but we know the second syllable of Network marketing is WORK.

Our working to provide free nutrition for these children does give one a great feeling. The money is a nice bonus – and great that doing good and being paid to do good can be combined! A real win-win-win Social Entrepreneur business!

AND Mannatech is not ‘all about me’. If it was we would not have M5M. Mannatech doesn’t just say they care about social needs, they are the leaders in the MLM industry where the social need is the WHY they are in business. They put their money where their mouth is.

Mannatech is much more than an income possibility business. We have sound (published) science behind our products, we have exclusive products; we have a company of integrity, and we have a compensation/pay out plan that is very fair. We are over 20 years in the business and one does not exist that long on hype, that’s for sure.
